Red dotted lines under words
I think what you're seeing is the result of Smart Tags, which are
supposed to recognize contact names, addresses, phone numbers and so on. If you hover the mouse pointer over the word, do you see a small square containing the letter i in a circle? If so, that's a Smart Tag. Moving the mouse to that box will give you an action menu To prevent them from appearing, go to Tools AutoCorrect Options Smart Tags and uncheck "Label text with smart tags". -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
